There is a limit for how aggressive you can be. Abusive or threatening behavior to straight up physical and you're done in my book. I don't know where Red Bull draws their line for what they can accept from an employee at one of their marketing ventures. It can be any number of things and it's all speculation and guesswork for now.

You're kidding right? The Sauber looks like the shite livery you never pick for your created team on F1 23.
Yeah I agree, colours could work but a very lazy generic livery.
It actually infuriates me how bad 90% of liveries are when people on the internet can create incredible ones, particular the backmarker teams who could create fans just by having amazing liveries.

Just a grid full of black carbon fibre cars at this rate.
Exactly my thoughts when I first looked at it
Maybe they should introduce a rule that x percentage of the car's weight MUST be paint/vinyls
Seems like a no brainer really, it wouldn't stop anyone from having lots of black if that's what they wanted and it would give teams the option to have some fun with it which would lead to more distinctive liveries and much better looking cars.
Can't even get decent looking cars these days. Sports gone to shit.
Or just a standardized paint and remove that form the max weight
Max says the Red Bull will look exactly the same as always
Another "dammit Max!" moment. Everybody higher up at RB probably trying to keep suspense before the launch and here comes their driver to basically say "meh"
Mercedes going silver would be good, but cant see it, with weigh saving being a big issue with most teams, paint for some is a extravagance that dont want.
F1 is considering making further changes to the sprint race format at the upcoming F1 Commission meeting on Friday with the possibility of a second parce ferme becoming part of the race weekend structure. This will come as a relief to Red Bull boss Christian Horner, who described the rules regarding making changes to cars as 'a joke'.
The F1 Commission meeting that took place on Monday already created some concrete changes for the 2024 season with a new sprint weekend format concocted. Under the new layout, Friday will contain the FP1 and the sprint shootout, which will be followed by the sprint race and then qualifying on Saturday. The Grand Prix will remain on Sunday.
According to a report from Motorsport.com, to go along with these changes, teams could be afforded a second parc ferme window. Previously, any changes made after the sprint shootout would force teams to start their driver from the pitlane during the Grand Prix.
The previous sprint weekend parc ferme rules were extremely unpopular. Expressing his frustrations last year, Horner said: "For me, parc ferme is a bit of a joke. You have one session to set your car up. And then the engineers may as well go home at that point.
"So, that needs looking at and that I'm sure was a contributing factor to the ride height issues of the teams that fell foul of the regulations. Effectively, it's just a long run on a sprint race. And there's no real jeopardy to it, there's no real incentive behind it."
The complications caused by the rigid parc ferme rules were put on show for all to see at the United States Grand Prix when both Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc were disqualified after Sunday's race due to excessive plank wear.

Silverstone confirmed for 10 more years, Suzuki was confirmed for 5 more as well. 2024 was the last year for both, considering how the French and German GP talks went was a little concerned so good to see.
Visa Cash App RB
Fair play to VCARB. Looks great
Agreed. Hard not to call it Toro Rosso though
i heard horner went off in a typical red bull racist rant after newey informed him he wanted to go to ferrari in 2024 as he’s always wondered what it would feel like to design a car for a worthy world champion like hamilton, and what it was like work with clowns instead of bellends.
Visa Cash App RB
If they just called themselves Visa Red Bull Racing they'd be so much less ridiculous. Car looks easily the best of those shown so far I'd say.
Visa Cash App RB
That is one ugly motherfecker.
the duality of man.
Oh look, a Toro Rosso if you sneezed a load of shit sponsors at it.
That really isn’t a nice livery but at least it has colours.
Agreed
I kinda like it but at the same time can see it's ugliness
Green Sauber or whatever it is looks cool.
Wait until the season starts and it gradually looks more like the red bulls, sidepods etc.
Someone correct me if im wrong, but no team principal has won constructors with two different teams before in the history of F1?
Ferrari to Fred you could be the new jean todt but we need his Ross brawn and to do that we need Horner to bring newey.
I'm mostly curious to see what team is gonna pull something out of their ass again like Merc and RB did when hiding some of the details of their new designs at launch several years ago. Ferrari probably just gonna show exactly what it will look like - as per usual.
Aston Martin.
Alonso with the Telegraaf:
“I first have to see whether I can determine for myself whether I am still fully motivated and can conform to a team for a few more years. Driving in Formula 1 requires total dedication. If I continue, talking to Aston Martin is the top priority. I feel at home here and believe in this project. But if we don't reach an agreement, then I will be in a privileged position. I showed last year that I am still fast and of the three world champions on the grid, I am the only one who is still available for 2025.”
